Starcin-500
Description_Effects
Starcin-500 contains Amikacin Sulphate 500 mg, a potent aminoglycoside antibiotic used in the treatment of serious bacterial infections. It works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, thereby stopping the growth and multiplication of bacteria. Starcin-500 is commonly administered by injection, either intramuscularly or intravenously, under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional. This medicine is effective against a wide range of gram-negative and some gram-positive bacteria. It is used to treat serious infections of the urinary tract, lungs (such as pneumonia), bones and joints, abdomen, central nervous system (like meningitis), skin and soft tissues, and bloodstream infections (septicemia). It is often reserved for infections that are resistant to other antibiotics. Patients usually begin to feel better within a few days of starting the treatment, but it is essential to complete the full course as prescribed to avoid antibiotic resistance and recurrence of infection. Close monitoring of kidney function and hearing may be required during treatment, as Amikacin can potentially cause nephrotoxicity (kidney damage) and ototoxicity (hearing loss), especially with prolonged use. Starcin-500 should only be used under medical supervision. Dosage and duration are determined based on the severity of the infection, patient age, weight, and kidney function.
